Cadillac: 1976 Eldorado Convertible. All Original, Fully Optioned And Runs Great on 2040-cars
Orlando, Florida, United States
1976 ELDORADO CONVERTIBLE Beautiful Firemist Green with white top. Only 59,000 miles.Very good condition and all original except for a new top, new tires, new door interior upholstery and new OEM carpets which have all been replaced within last two years. Has had a brand new A/C compressor installed and full air conditioning service done in the past month. The power top operates properly as do all four passenger windows. Even the clock still works! This car has its original paint which appears to be in good condition and the non-fuel injected 500 cu inch engine which runs exceptionally well and shifts smoothly.The car drives very well with no hesitation or steering issues. There are no oil drips under the engine and no blue exhaust smoke. The body is straight and there are virtually no dings or dents. The chrome appears to be in excellent condition. The flexible fender fillers appear to have been replaced at some time in the past, but are in very good condition. This car has virtually all the convenience options Cadillac offered in 1976 including the usual P/S, P/B, P/W, tilt and telescoping wheel, cruise control, power antenna, white leather 6-way seats, power door locks, cornering lights, remote control mirrors, AM-FM 8-track tape unit, remote trunk release, power pull-down trunk lid, glass rear window with electric defogger and even the optional trumpet horns. All options work except Cruise Control, but all parts are intact. There is a small (1/4") wear spot on the piping on the driver's side of the front center arm rest and the beginnings of two cracks in the front passengers seat. The original 8-track tape unit was replaced with a cassette tape player a few years ago, but the original 8-track unit as well as a large box of 70's and 80's tapes are included. Also included are the 1976 Cadillac Shop Manual, the corresponding Fisher Body manual plus all original documentation including the Owner's Manual and the original window sticker. This car has been garage-kept for the past 37 years and has been driven only short distances about once a month to keep the seals lubricated. I believe this car is a solid #3 or better condition with an excellent potential to be either fully restored or used as a daily driver. More pictures available. |

2018 Lincoln Navigator vs luxury SUV rivals: How it compares on paper
Wed, Nov 8 2017The all-new 2018 Lincoln Navigator is an impressive, luxury-lined beast. However, while its Black Label interior stood out most during our first drive of the new Navigator, it also seemed pretty clear that much of this full-size SUV was superior to the competition in a number of fundamental ways. Its Raptor-sourced 3.5-liter V6 had class-leading power for one, and its third-row seat seemed as spacious and comfortable as its rivals' are cramped and barely usable. To search for your next new vehicle, try Autoblog' s Car Finder. Yet, I wanted to take a closer look at how the Navigator fully compares on paper to its competitors - especially the Cadillac Escalade with which it most directly competes. The below spreadsheet should tell the whole story, but as you can see, there's an awful lot of class-leading green highlighter in the Navigator's column. The cargo volume and third-row legroom numbers are particularly telling, with the latter actually going up to 42.3 inches when you slide the second-row fully forward. Now, a few things to note about the above spreadsheet. The GLS-Class is also available as the GLS 550, which boasts a 4.7-liter V8 that just comes up short to the Navigator with 449 horsepower but has to deal with only 5,578 pounds. Its $94,950 price tag is comparable to the Navigator Black Label. Much of the LX 570's information is also applicable to the Toyota Land Cruiser, which, badge aside, could certainly be considered a member of this segment given its feature content and still-hefty price tag. It has better ground clearance and approach/departure angles than its Lexus sibling, along with an as-indicated lower price. Much of the Escalade's information also applies to the GMC Yukon Denali, while the Infiniti QX80 is applicable to the Nissan Armada.

GM laying off more than 4,000 workers Monday morning
Sat, Feb 2 2019According to reports from Automotive News, The Detroit News, and CNN, General Motors plans to begin laying off more than 4,000 salaried workers starting Monday morning. In a statement to AN, a spokesperson for the automaker said, "We are not confirming timing. Our employees are our priority. We will communicate with them first." We've been expecting layoffs at General Motors since November, 2018. At the time, the Detroit-based automaker announced it would seek to shed 8,100 salaried employees, shut down five assembly plants in North America, and kill off several slow-selling models. One month earlier, GM offered buyout packages to 18,000 workers and said it would seek to cut its global workforce by 25 percent. A spokesperson said at the time the moves were "proactive steps to get ahead of the curve by accelerating our efforts to address overall business performance." The cost-cutting moves are expected to save GM up to $2.5 billion in 2019 and as much as $6 billion by 2020. David Kudla, CEO and chief investment strategist of Mainstay Capital Management, referred to the impending culling as "Black Monday" and told The Detroit News that the layoffs would begin around 7:30 a.m. and continue in waves throughout the coming days and weeks. GM plans to deliver on its fourth-quarter and full-year 2018 earnings report on Wednesday. President Donald Trump plans to deliver the annual State of the Union address a day earlier on Tuesday. We expect to hear plenty more from both sides over the next several days.
Carpool Deville aims to be the world's fastest hot tub
Wed, 16 Jul 2014The world needs crazy inventors with wild dreams. While we might not long for the things that they create, their contraptions certainly make the day a little more enjoyable. Take the Carpool Deville as an example. Nobody (well, almost nobody) is asking for a hot tub fashioned from a 1969 Cadillac that is still drivable. But now that you know that such a beast exists, don't try to tell us you aren't at least intrigued.
The team behind the six-year-long project has a pretty ingenious setup worked out. The Caddy's original 472-cubic-inch (7.7-liter) V8 both provides propulsion and heats the water. The interior is entirely replaced with a watertight, fiberglass tub that includes working jets, and the controls are all done by hand.
As if just building a mobile hot tub isn't enough, the team behind the Carpool Deville plans to take it racing too. Specifically, they intend to go to the Bonneville Salt Flats later this year to make a top speed run while immersed in water at over 100 degrees. They even have a roll cage all set to install to meet the safety requirements there.
